Daniel O’Connell’s - Ottawa, Ontario

Father’s Day… we wheeled my father into The Royal Oak for fish and chips and a beer. After 20 minutes of non-service (the waitress didn’t even take a drink order) we got up and left. We then went to your establishment. The waitress was attentive and cheerful, she took our ... order right away and 20 minutes later, we had our meals. The fish was superb… and cheaper than next door. Lesson learned - we will be back! Read more

Waited 40 minutes for our food at lunch time, never ended up eating, the food never showed up. There was nobody else in the place. Paid for our drinks with cash and left. Horrendous

Had an incredibly wonderful evening at O'Connell's tonight! I manage a large snow removal company and came to this establishment to hunker down and direct various teams as they finished a storm. The bartender on staff, Amber, was incredibly welcoming. The patrons were mostly industry, and all were clearly having an ... amazing time. Until now I've spent most of my recreational time in the East end of the city, but Amber's stellar service and the ambience of O'Connell's may have enticed me to make the extra drive out this direction more often. Thank you, Amber!!! Read more

Basic pub food and pub experience. The burger was alright but the fries and onion rings were pretty good. We don't recommend the donut dessert we had. It was in the meh category for my wife and I trying to visit a locally owned pub. It did seem like a ... good local community hangout everyone was friendly and nice. Read more

Came here for lunch, and got a chicken Caesar salad. I didn't realize when I'd come in, but it's the same kitchen and menu as Fil's next door. Service was decent, chicken breast was grilled and juicy. Croutons could have been better, and the garlic bread was a squished hamburger ... bun that barely tasted of garlic. I have a hard time reviewing because what I ordered at Fil's was decent, and good for the price, but I found the Caesar salad overpriced and not great, so it's difficult to rate this dish rather than the restaurant as a whole, where I already reviewed Fil's. But based on the dish I got, I wouldn't recommend coming here for the dish I got. Read more
